Day 25: Total Body Circuit

From day one of my T25 transformation I definitely started to develop a penchant for some of the workouts and a strong dislike of some of the workouts which was at times making me almost dread those days.  However I kept telling myself I would get better at those workouts (total body circuit was at the top of this list) and it was only 25 minutes.  However, two days ago when I was looking at the workout calendar and discovered that I had to do total body circuit on that day and then again two days after that, I was having some serious negative thoughts.  Looking at myself and feeling how different my clothes feel and knowing how much better I feel already after only a little over 3 weeks it was like a little light bulb went off.  I don't know if you are reading one of my blogs called Ms Sassy Classy or not but I published a post on there a while back titled Turn Discouragement Into Determination.  That post talks about taking things that are negative and discouraging and turning them into something positive through determination.  Right then and there I decided that I was going to stop looking at any workout in any way other than positively.  Instead of dreading my workout this morning I couldn't wait to get out of bed so I could own that workout.  AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I DID.  I owned that workout!  And I felt exhilarated after I was finished.  I listened to Shaun T and when he said to push my hips out at the top of the squats I was giving it all I had.  And when he asks if you are hooking I always crack up so I think this may be my new favorite dvd!  If you are having any negative thoughts or doubts or are thinking of making excuses, just look at your body and think how much more awesome you are going to look and feel in 6 more weeks and get determined and nail it!!!!

I would like to say thank you to Michelle who shared her experience with me yesterday and give her kudos for staying focused and nailing her workouts!  Maybe she will share before and after pics on my blog when she is done:)
